By Selwyn Duke In the 19th century, European immigrants might write home a letter including something such as the following. “Dear Uncle Maarten, it’s unbelievable: Here in America, I can eat meat every day!” Such a lifestyle was unheard of in the Old World. And now there may be the 21st-century version of this incredulity.…

By Selwyn Duke President Donald Trump recently reversed the Obama-era “endangerment finding,” which had identified CO2 as a public-health threat. Global-warming alarmists consider this a step backwards. But, says a man with actual hands-on experience working with so-called greenhouse gases, it’s a step toward sanity. In fact, writes James T. Moodey on Sunday, “Real scientists have…

By Selwyn Duke It’s always nice when your theory covers most every possible outcome. Just consider the matter of anthropogenic (man-caused) climate change. We have, of course, heard that if the weather warms, the thesis is correct. If the weather merely becomes more volatile, we’re told, it’s also correct, with the “excess” atmospheric CO2 causing climatic…

By Selwyn Duke There may be a reason why, according to an AI analysis, approximately 40 percent of global-warming girl Greta Thunberg’s recent activism has involved anything but global warming. And it could just be because, as a commentator recently noted, the “climate alarmists are not ‘alarming’ anymore.”

By Selwyn Duke Man, oh man, is there any woe a toxically masculine man isn’t responsible for today? The recent miniseries Adolescence, for instance, put the onus for much anti-female violence on the “manosphere.” And now we learn that, supposedly, the manosphere also mucks up the atmosphere, with a new study linking men to higher…

By Selwyn Duke There’s a somewhat old saying: “If you want to preserve forest,” it goes, “don’t build a road through it. And if you do, make sure it’s a bad one.” But, hey, preserving trees is so yesterday; climate is the cool kids’ kick now. So it is, too, that in preparation for the…

By Selwyn Duke First there were the Biden family pardons; then there were the pardons of the J6 political prisoners. Joining the latter now, though, may be another case where the unjustly convicted would be absolved from guilt. It’s high time, too, as this condemned party has spent almost a generation in the pokey of…

By Selwyn Duke In another example of the all-consuming fires of wokeness, it has been revealed that authorities spent millions of dollars the last two years incorporating “indigenous knowledge” into California’s wildfire-mitigation policies. What could possibly go wrong? What already has, apparently.

By Selwyn Duke “The temperature is rising!” “The temperature is dropping.” The temperature is staying the same.” We argue the “facts” of climate change (even as parts of New Jersey were just buried under 11 inches of global warming). One side wants the facts to show that man is disrupting the climate, while the other…

By Selwyn Duke In 2013, astrobiologist Jack O’Malley-James predicted that visible life on Earth would end due to too little atmospheric CO2. No, that’s not a typo. The gas’ levels will ultimately decline over time (the dinosaur age saw levels five to 10 times today’s), O’Malley-James explained. Eventually, they’ll drop so low that plants won’t be able…
